Hey Everyone,
In this Early Access release, we switched to using .NET10 for Roon Remote mobile clients and continued improving Roon’s overall stability by making additional fixes for the performance improvements we published in the last two EA releases, along with various bug fixes for both Roon and Roon ARC applications.
.NET 10 on Roon Remote mobile clients
This is one of the most significant under-the-hood changes we’ve made since Roon Remote launched. From day one, our Android and iOS clients have run on Mono — and while it served us well, we’ve long been eager to move on. With the maturation of the .NET 10 framework, we finally have. Our dev team has completed the migration, replacing Mono with .NET 10 across both platforms.
The most tangible benefit should be improved stability and robustness. That said, a change this foundational will need real-world testing to shake out any rough edges — which is exactly why your feedback matters. If you’re running this Early Access build on your Android or iOS device, please keep an eye out for anything that feels off and let us know.
Bug fixes
We included a couple of minor bug fixes for both Roon and Roon ARC, restoring the visibility of play counts for non-library tracks in playlists, ensuring the Save and Cancel buttons are visible in the Edit Genre Mapping dialogue, and a couple of other items.
We appreciate your attention to these improvements and look forward to your feedback. Your input is crucial in helping us refine the final release.
Thanks for being part of our testing community!
The Team at Roon Labs
